5Rock

Intel's E6xx embedded series of Atom processors will be announced on Tuesday. As an example of embedded control, Intel researchers showed off a robotic hand that played "Rock, Paper, Scissors" based on a camera that interpreted your hand position.

9Digital Keystone's Maelstrom

An interesting prototype: DK's Maelstrom takes in video signals via cable or set-top box and transcodes them for other devices, beaming them via Wi-Fi elsewhere in your house. This is the technology (with live video) running on an iPad.

The overall Maelstrom setup. There's no reason that the technology couldn't be used for transmitting apps like Twitter, as the interface is sent down from the cable provider, which DK will target as a customer.

15ExoPC

This Windows 7 tablet can be supposedly pre-ordered at ExoPC.com, although there's only an e-mail contact address. The 11.6-inch Windows 7 tablet contains an N450 Atom, 2 GB of RAM, 802.11n Bluetooth, mini HDMI, a Webcam, and flash disks of either 32 or 64 GB.

Renée J. James, senior VP and general manager of Intel's Software Services Group, spoke during her Tuesday keynote of Intel's spreading across "the continuum" into TVs, tablets, and more running on any operating system.

22Doug Davis Keynote

Intel Vice President and General Manager of the Embedded and Communications Group Doug Davis mentioned Dr. Seuss' Oh the Places You'll Go as the inspiration for Intel's intention for putting the Atom processor in all manner of mobile and embedded devices.

25Gigabyte Motherboards

At its booth in the Technology Showcase, Gigabyte displayed two of its upcoming Sandy Bridge motherboards, which have been given a major facelift by way of an all-black PCB and more mature-colored components replacing the bright blue and white of current models.

26Lian Li Case

Also on display at Gigabyte's booth in the Technology Showcase was this "enclosure" from famed designer by Lian Li that shows off this Mini-ITX motherboard. This obviously can't be used for building actual systems, but it was a striking fixture at the booth.

27Justin Rattner Keynote

In his keynote speech on the last day of IDF, Intel CTO and Head of Intel Labs discussed the concept of "context-aware computing," and how devices in the future may be able to bring you the things you need and want—before you even have to ask.
